Chapter 935 – Golden Nirvana Wheel

“In the beginning, when the Divine Intuition is just formed, its range is only five to ten meters around the cultivator. With the advancement of every level, the range will increase. The Divine Martial Soul will undergo a major transformation and slowly become stronger. At the Ninth Divine Martial Stage, the range can reach up to fifty thousand kilometers or even further!”

“Fifty thousand kilometers!”

Long Chen drew in a sharp breath. How scary was that? Wouldn’t that mean that when a master of this level was at the center of the Underworld Estate, he could sense everything that happened in the estate? Wasn’t that something only gods from legends could do?

Indeed, those legends had a kernel of truth.

To the peasants of the Ten Thousand Nations Territory, the Divine Martial Realm experts who had reached the Divine Intuition Realm were basically gods.

Long Chen immediately recalled something. After Ling Xi used the Nine Heavens Immortal Fruit to regain her physical body, her aunt immediately sensed her presence. The Ten Thousand Nations Territory was huge, yet she was able to sense her presence. That meant that they were experts at the peak of the Divine Martial Realm ...”

“Peak Divine Martial Realm, hehe ...”

Long Chen finally figured out their cultivation levels.

It did not become stress, but rather his goal.

When he thought of that, Long Chen clenched his fists.

“A Ninth Divine Martial Stage expert is able to sense everything that happens within fifty thousand kilometers. Every level of the Divine Martial Realm offers a huge transformation.

“What is the realm after the Second Divine Martial Stage? Beyond the Star Cluster and Divine Intuition Realm.”

“The Third Divine Martial Stage is also known as the Heavenly Human Realm. Cultivators of this level have merged with the heavens. The domain formed in the Heavenly Martial Realm has merged with their bodies so they can exert perfect control over the energy of heaven and earth to boost their attacks. Every punch and palm attack can make mountains shake. When you fight a Heavenly Human Realm cultivator, it is like fighting heaven and earth themselves. The Admirals of the Underworld Army are Heavenly Human Realm cultivators with perfect control over their domains.”

Long Chen committed this to memory. The Heavenly Human Realm was easy to understand. It was the merging of Heaven and Human, and it was an upgrade to the Heavenly Martial Realm. Indeed, although the Heavenly Martial Realm had nine stages, it merely laid the foundation for the Divine Martial Realm.

“The Fourth Divine Martial Stage is known as the Peak Martial Realm. When you reach this level, your comprehension of the Martial Path has reached perfection. If you want to reach it, you need to form your own Martial Mind and develop your own unique Martial Path that would allow you to unleash even more terrifying attacks. The Peak Martial Realm is the peak of the Martial Path. Every person’s Martial Mind differs and they can be differentiated between weak and strong. It all depends on your comprehension abilities. Su Mo from the Underworld Army is a Peak Martial Realm cultivator and quite powerful. Even five Admirals working together would lose to him in one move.

“Star Cluster, Divine Intuition, Heavenly Human, Extreme Martial. Su Mo is that powerful?”

Long Chen now understood that although Su Mo was only three levels above Ye Xuan, there was still a huge gap. In the Heavenly Martial Realm, Long Chen could kill an opponent three levels above himself, but this would not be possible in the Divine Martial Realm. The gap between the Star Cluster and Peak Martial Realms was not a small one. Even within the Peak Martial Realm itself, there was a huge gap.

“What? Are you afraid of what I said? Hehe. You’re favored by the heavens, brat. Other people take a thousand years to reach the Peak Martial Realm. You taking that few years is extremely insane. There’s nothing to be dejected about. In ten years or so, you’ll be as strong as they are.”

“Nonsense. I’m not dejected. Carry on.” Although Long Chen was shaken, he was not afraid.

He was the heir of the ancestral dragons, why would he be afraid of these things?

He also had the True Martial Soul, so he had the option to reference other people’s martial paths to forge his own.

Seeing as Long Chen was still in good condition, Little Cat continued.

“The Fifth Divine Martial Stage is special. It consists of the Fire, Wind, and Thunder Tribulations. At this stage, you will endure three tribulations in your body, namely the Wind Tribulation, the Fire Tribulation, and the Thunder Tribulation. Many people get stuck in this stage for their whole lives. There are even many people who weren’t killed by other people, but rather were killed by the tribulations. These tribulations are given by the heavens because too much energy has accumulated in a cultivator’s body. If you survive this, you will become the ultimate master. If you do not, you will be blown and burnt to death. Many people tremble when they hear about the tribulations. However, many people still attempt it. I think City Lord Ye Xuan passed the Wind Tribulation not too long ago.

“The previous realms are differentiated into Initial and Perfect phases, but the Fifth Divine Martial Stage is divided into three. People who have survived the Wind Tribulation will have a different strength level compared to people who have passed the Fire Tribulation. People who have passed the Thunder Tribulation will be much stronger than the ones who have passed the Fire Tribulation.

“These are the three tribulations of the Divine Martial Realm. The subsequent cultivation process is much more carefree, but not easy.”

Long Chen asked, “Do many people die at the Fifth Divine Martial Stage?”

“Of course. Most people are unable to pass the tribulations safely. This is a test of determination, strength, and luck. Those who survive are super-masters.”

Long Chen nodded woodenly.

Even the Fifth Divine Martial Stage was beyond terrifying. What was next?

“The Sixth Divine Martial Stage is known as Peerless Golden Body. At this stage, the physical body is transformed in a major way again to become the Peerless Golden Body. Limb regeneration is possible here. As long as the Divine Martial Soul is not destroyed and a portion of the body remains, the cultivator will live. Unless the person experiences the most destructive kind of attack, where their whole body is destroyed instantly, they are very difficult to kill. Sixth Divine Martial Stage cultivators all live for thousands of years.

“The Seventh Divine Martial Stage is known as the Heaven and Earth Dharma. In the Peak Martial Realm, you condense and train the mind. In this stage, the image of heaven and earth appears behind you when you guide the energy of heaven and earth to be used for yourself. You merge the mind of the world with your own mind and form a world belonging to yourself inside your mind. This world is illusory, but Seventh Divine Martial Stage cultivators can draw a lot of power from this illusory world!

“The Eighth Divine Martial Stage is known as the Universe Heavenly Path. Long Chen, you must be curious about where these miniverses come from, right? Some of these were naturally formed, while others were created by humans. Cultivators at this stage have comprehended the Heavenly Path. Using the power of their 9,999 meridian points, they create a world inside their bodies. This becomes a world that belongs to them, and it exists in their bodies. When they die, the spaces in their bodies will naturally evolve into the miniverses you see, though that takes thousands of years.”

The world beyond the Sixth Divine Martial Stage was like a legend to Long Chen.

So far, he could only understand them slightly.

He could grasp the Star Cluster, Divine Intuition, Heavenly Human, and Peak Martial Realms much better.

“What is the final stage, then?

Little Cat chuckled and said, “The final stage is related to the next realm beyond, which is the Tribulation Realm. It goes from the Four Foundational Realms, the Three Martial Realms, then to the Two Tribulation Realms. The two Tribulation Realms are the Nirvana Tribulation Realm and the Reincarnation Tribulation Realm. The Tribulation Realms are the magnified versions of the Fire, Wind, and Thunder Tribulations of the Fifth Divine Martial Stage. But those are child’s play compared to the Tribulation Realm. The heavens are the true rulers of the world, and the Heavenly Path will not let anyone go beyond the heavens. The two Tribulation Realms have obstructed the paths of countless cultivators across history. These realms are too abstract and too complicated to explain. You’ll understand in the future. I’m only explaining up till the Ninth Divine Martial Stage.”

“Mhm.” Long Chen was not greedy. He nodded and did not talk much.

“At the Ninth Divine Martial Stage, a Golden Nirvana Wheel will form between one’s eyebrows. The Golden Nirvana Wheel is related to the Nirvana Tribulation Realm. After the wheel is formed, you will have the power to shatter space itself. Although the spaces in the Royal Territories are very stable, Ninth Divine Martial Stage cultivators can shatter them with a mere punch.”

Long Chen memorized all the stages.

“Let me summarize it. The realms are Star Cluster; Divine Intuition; Heavenly Human; Peak Martial; Fire, Wind, and Thunder Tribulations; Peerless Golden Body; Heaven and Earth Dharma; Universe Heavenly Path; and Golden Nirvana Wheel. Right?” asked Long Chen.

“That’s right. Are you scared yet?” Little Cat looked at him with amusement.

Long Chen smiled. He leaped out of the Underworld Blood River and guffawed. He roared, “I’m not fucking scared! All I can say is—this is what makes it fun!”

He had regained his strength.

“Underworld Battlefield, I am here! Kill!”

Looking at the desolate lands, pride surged through his chest!

“It doesn’t matter if you’re a god, demon, or devil, I will kill you and swallow you whole! Heavenly Path ... I wonder what that is ...”

Long Chen looked around as he stood on the barren land.

“My first opponent shall be you.”

He looked at the Underworld Blood River, where he exited. Not far away, the blood water started to ripple and a large whirlpool formed. The bloody river churned furiously.

Suddenly, several sharp hisses sounded from the river.

Whoosh!

There were a few booms and water splashed in all directions. Water flew from three places and several large objects rushed out of the water. Long Chen looked closer and saw that they were three snake-type beasts. However, when his gaze lowered, he realized that it was actually a single beast with three heads.
